Residents of China and Saudi Arabia, meanwhile, have become more proud of their countries’ environmental efforts, said the research by Gallup, a prominent US-based polling group.
To mark the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, Gallup surveyed attitudes about efforts to fight climate change and preserve the environment in 145 countries.
